Abstract
A power adjustable vehicle seat with a seating that is adjustable in height has a side part and an electromotor. The electromotor comprises a flange-mounted transmission, which transmission is provided with an output shaft and with a transmission case. The side part is provided with a bearing for the output shaft. The transmission case has an area axially facing said bearing for the output shaft. The area facing the side part is open-ended by having no case wall on that open end axially facing the bearing for the output shaft. The side part functions as a case wall of the transmission case once the transmission case is fastened to the side part.
